The XML for Word files is a pretty big mess and it doesn't follow the spec in places. Headers for example, there are three section headers that can be specified, default, odd, and first. If odd and first are not included, it should go to default (according to the spec [1]), but it doesn't.
The old format had some shortened names which made stuff really hard to follow to the uninitiated. [2]
